Challenge Requirements -
- Scrap a page that uses elements and papers that reflect who you are - I used: A busy background paper to represent my busy mind, I am also an avid reader and an academic so I used a paper with text to represent that. Yellow as that is my favourite colour and I like to try and keep a sunny optimism, so I included lots of yellow. I do however sometimes need a reminder to stop and calm down, hence the calming blue against the yellow. I included the family word tag as family means everything to me. A snowflake as winter is my favourite season and I prefer to be cold than hot. I included a lace doily to represent my delicate, sensitive side but hid it behind the paper layering as I often keep that side of me hidden. There is a compass to represent my yearning to see the world, a clock hand to represent the feeling of always needing to balance my time. Paint splashes because although I am logical and organised I'm also creative and messy. Pixie dust down the side of my photo to represent the magic I try to find in ordinary life. A music note to represent my business logo and my love of music. And the curly ribbon going across to show that I am trying to be a little more free flowing in some aspects of my life rather than everything being organised and perfect.
- Your page must contain the quote: "I am my own experiment. I am my own work of art." - Check
